It serves as the Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) for some types of aquatic weed or plant control and removal including physical and mechanical methods. It does not address using grass carp, herbicides, or water column dye. You may find information regarding those methods at Washington Department of Ecology’s website on aquatic plant management at http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/plants/management/index.html. Depending on the method you select to control aquatic noxious weeds or beneficial plants, an individual HPA may be required. If you use this pamphlet as your HPA for aquatic weed or plant control, please review it thoroughly and follow all applicable provisions. You may download, save and print a copy of the Aquatic Plants and Fish pamphlet from the WDFW website at http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/aquatic_plant_removal/index.html or request one from a WDFW office. The administrative rules adopted by the Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) addressed in this pamphlet are included in WAC 220-660-290. This pamphlet does not contain information about how to identify aquatic noxious weeds or beneficial plants, or make recommendations on which control method would be best in a specific situation. There are many online and other resources available that you may wish to consult when deciding whether or how to control aquatic plants. One such resource is Washington Department of Ecology’s Water Quality 2015 Aquatic Plants and Fish Pamphlet Page 1 website, specifically its pages titled Aquatic Plants, Algae, and Lakes at http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/links/plants.html. Limit of WDFW Authority • An activity conducted solely to remove or control spartina does not require an HPA. • An activity conducted solely to remove or control purple loosestrife and that is performed with hand-held tools or equipment, or equipment carried by you when used, does not require an HPA. • Any other activity conducted solely to remove or control aquatic noxious weeds or aquatic beneficial plants requires either a copy of the current Aquatic Plants and Fish pamphlet available from the department or an individual HPA. • Information on applying for individual HPAs and how to contact a WDFW biologist is available at the following WDFW website: http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/hpa/. Other Permits May Be Necessary The Aquatic Plants and Fish pamphlet pertains only to WDFW’s administration of hydraulic projects regulated under the Revised Code of Washington (Chapter 77.55 RCW). It is your responsibility to apply for and obtain any additional permits or authorization from other government agencies (local, state and/or federal) and land owners that may be necessary for this project. The Governor’s Office for Regulatory Innovation and Assistance (ORIA) at http://www.oria.wa.gov/site/alias__oria/347/default.aspx can assist you in determining your permit needs. Aquatic Vegetation and Fish Beneficial plants play a significant role in lakes and streams by providing food and habitat for fish life, stabilizing shorelines, and contributing to nutrient cycling. Sometimes beneficial plants can grow in overabundance, usually because of excessive inputs of nutrients such as nitrogen or phosphorus. In contrast, aquatic noxious weeds can threaten native vegetation, fish life, and the habitat that supports fish life. Often the best approach to controlling and removing aquatic plants is developing a vegetation management plan. A vegetation management plan is a comprehensive approach to controlling aquatic plants where all strategies are considered and usually some combination of techniques is selected and implemented. These plans should be based on the biology and ecology of the aquatic plant to be controlled and the environmental characteristics of the site. Integrated vegetation management planning is encouraged to comprehensively address aquatic plant problems for a watercourse. 2015 Aquatic Plants and Fish Pamphlet Page 2 Definitions The following definitions apply to aquatic plant control and removal activities that you conduct under authority of the Aquatic Plants and Fish pamphlet. Terms in bold font throughout this pamphlet are defined here. Aquatic beneficial plant: all native and nonnative aquatic plants except those on the state noxious weed lists in WAC 16-750-005, 16-750-011, and 16-750-015. Aquatic noxious weed: an aquatic plant on the state noxious weed lists in WAC 16-750-005, 16-750- 011, and 16-750-015. Aquatic plant: a native or nonnative emergent, submersed, partially submersed, free-floating, or floating-leaved plant species that is dependent upon fresh, brackish, or marine water ecosystems and includes all stages of development and parts. Bottom barrier or screen: sheets of synthetic or natural fiber material used to cover and kill plants growing on the bottom of a watercourse. Diver-operated dredging: the use of portable suction or hydraulic dredges held by SCUBA divers to remove aquatic plants. Early infestation: a stage of development, life history, or area of coverage of an aquatic noxious weed that makes one hundred percent control and eradication likely to occur. Entrained: the entrapment of fish into a watercourse diversion that has no screen, into high velocity water along the face of an improperly designed screen, or into the vegetation cut by a mechanical harvester. Eradication: to eliminate an aquatic noxious weed within an area of infestation. Hydraulic project approval (HPA): A written approval for a hydraulic project signed by the director of WDFW or the director's designee; or

  • Snohomish Basin Steelhead State of the Knowledge Report (2008)
    23 January 2008 TO: Snohomish Basin Partners SUBJECT: Snohomish Basin Steelhead State of the Knowledge Report Dear Partners: With the Snohomish Basin Salmonid Recovery Technical Committee and the Co-managers (WDFW and Tulalip Tribes), Snohomish County contracted the services of R2 Resource Consulting to compile existing information on steelhead in the Snohomish Basin. This information was requested in anticipation of eventual recovery plan development across the Puget Sound Steelhead ESU. The report lays a foundation for technical analysis and planning, but it is not a plan. The Report fulfilled eight key tasks that help provide baseline information for the planning process: 1. Developed an electronic annotated bibliography documenting sources of data and information on life histories, largely at the basin level. 2. Developed a GIS geodatabase of current and historic life histories in habitats across the basin. 3. Developed a map of known spawning and rearing reaches in the basin. 4. Summarized harvest and hatchery management in cooperation with the co-managers. 5. Described available information on migration, spawning, rearing and overwintering habitats across the basin, by brood year and stock. 6. Described existing data sets and their strengths and limitations for planning. 7. Summarized the knowledge regarding genetic differentiation between hatchery and wild stocks. 8. Coordinated with the Technical Committee, Co-managers and NOAA Fisheries. Note: the information in this report was collected from all known sources. The Technical Committee and Forum will need to evaluate this information and put it into context when initiating the planning process. The report may raise technical or policy questions to the fore but is not meant as the definitive answer for steelhead management and/or recovery.

  • Coastal Rivers - Special Rules
    Puget Sound and Coastal Rivers - Special Rules With various fish populations across the state being listed under the Endangered SpeciesAct, WDFW must provide as much protection as possible for all life stages of these populations, in particular for rearing juveniles. For many years, the standard stream rule opened rivers, streams, and beaver ponds to fishing for Game Fish from the first Saturday in June – October 31, with an 8" minimum size, 2 fish/day limit. Consequently, much of the juvenile rearing habitat for resident trout and Dolly Varden and anadromous salmon, steelhead, cutthroat, and Bull Trout was open for fishing. As a result, these juvenile salmonids were at risk of being incidentally caught and may have not survived being handled and released, especially if bait was used. In 2010 we adopted a new management strategy that offered additional protection to stocks in streams draining into Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. In 2012 this strategy was extended to the Coast. The basic rule in these waters is that all rivers, streams, and beaver ponds are CLOSED to fishing unless they are listed in the following tables within the Puget Sound, Strait, and Coastal River sections of the pamphlet (see pages 23-51). These tables detail ALL of the fishing opportunity in these drainages. Areas open to fisheries are presented by river system unless the waters drain directly to salt water. All other waters in these drainages are closed to fishing. Beaver ponds located within or connected to streams listed as open toTROUT and Other Game Fish follow the same rules as the stream unless otherwise listed.

  • Times When Spawning Or Incubating Salmonids Are Least Likely to Be Within Washington State Freshwaters
    Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife TIMES WHEN SPAWNING OR INCUBATING SALMONIDS ARE LEAST LIKELY TO BE WITHIN WASHINGTON STATE FRESHWATERS June 1, 2018 Page 1 Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) biologists will use this table as a starting point when they consider timing restrictions for any hydraulic project for which they will issue a written HPA. WDFW developed this table based on the general conditions and fish life histories present within broad reaches of stream or sub- basins. Based on the site-specific conditions, circumstances, work proposed, and fish life stages present, timing restrictions for individual hydraulic project sites may differ from those upon which this table was based; therefore alternative work times may be appropriate for some projects. The table identifies times when salmonid eggs and fry are least likely to be incubating within stream gravels. In the case of some large streams, such as the Columbia and Snake Rivers, outmigration timing of smolts was also considered. Check the listing for the county in which in-water work will occur to identify times that may avoid impact to spawning and incubating fish life. Biologists will also consider such things as the expected impact of construction activities, equipment type and access, life history stages of all species of fish life present, presence or absence of spawning habitat and incubating fish at or near the project site, weather (heavy rain, snow, frozen soils), work site containment, wastewater management, best management practices proposed by the project proponent, mitigation measures volunteered or imposed upon the project, and other circumstances and conditions when permitting in-water work.

  • Conservation History of the Alpine Lakes Part I Bill Beyers & Don Parks1
    The Newsletter of the Alpine Lakes Protection Society (ALPS) 2016 Issue No. 2 Conservation History of the Alpine Lakes Part I Bill Beyers & Don Parks1 While 2016 marks the 40th anniversary of the passage of the Alpine Lakes Management Act, proposals for preservation of the region date back almost another 40 years. In fact, events critical to conservation in the Alpine Lakes Region date back to 1864 with the authorization of the Northern Pacific Railroad (NPR) to build a transcontinental railroad that could receive a federal land grant. The resulting land ownership pattern, coupled with the extremely high environmental values, have measurably added to the challenge of efforts to protect the area. Figure 1 Land Ownership Classification Pattern Prior to Settlement of NPR Land Claims in 1940. Northern Pacific Land Grant Source: Cascade Mountains Study, by Washington State Planning Council, dated May 1940. The land ownerships (1864-1941) depicted are as of 1937.
